I still haven't watched The Web of Fear, granted I did not order the I Tunes release and the DVD is in route from London. Watched it again two days ago when I bought the DVD. You are in for a treat!!!! Absolutely jaw dropping restoration.

I appreciate your making that a bit clearer for me, John! There's uncertainty enough on this topic in recent times!

But did the Radio Times have anything to do with UM and G4 turning up? I thought it was more a chance chat between chums in a cafe. No, they didn't. iirc it was Paul Vanezis chatting to someone and slipping in a question to the effect that did they have any Dr Who. It turned out that they had one and a couple of months later found another.

Actually,I like the way the original article,in the RT says "somehow the topic turned to Doctor Who".It would have been so easy for them to have added "because of the campaign we were having about missing episodes".But they didn't.

Have I lost my mind?
There's a scene in "Zoolander" where Will Ferrell's character shouts, "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!"
That's how I'm starting to feel with the Omnirumour. What has PM said? "Expect the unexpected." What does that mean, anyway? The unexpected? A naked Queen Elizabeth II will goosestep across Stonehenge on St. Swithin's Day balancing all the missing episodes on her royal noggin?
God, for a couple of simple declarative sentences: "The 97 missing episodes are exactly that. Missing. Meaning I have no knowledge of any footage for any of the 97 episodes. I do not have them hidden in a storage locker, under negotiations, or anything else. They are just as missing today as they were 10, 20, 30 years ago. I am not holding back Marco Polo or any other stories."

What happened to the men of Flight 19? Where was Wallace Sage calling from that night in 1968? Why is the Pentagon the shape it is? (Grant Morrison's Doom Patrol run seems to me to be as good a source of up to the minute insights in the "omnirumour" saga as anything else!)

If Grant Morrison's involved,it's not so much that there's nothing at the end of the lane,as that the lane has no fixed abode...

This thread should be re-titled "The Rumours Have Started"!

Perhaps the "Espect the unexpected" just means he is also a Hitch-hikers Guide fan.
